You’ve had all the rest, now make the best. This upgrade takes just a few minutes more: Let the melted butter get all nutty and brown, and then add salt. Boom.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter

  • 1 tsp vanilla

  • ½ tsp salt

  • 2-250g bags miniature marshmallows

  • 10 cups puffed rice cereal

Instructions

  • Line a 9x13-in. pan with parchment, leaving overhang on 2 sides.

  • Melt butter in a large pot over medium-high. Stir as butter foams up, then becomes nutty brown, 5 to 6 min.

  • Reduce heat to low, then quickly add vanilla, salt and marshmallows, stirring until completely melted. Remove from heat and stir in cereal until well-coated.

  • Press into prepared pan and let cool at least 1 hour. Cut into squares.

Tips

This recipe is easily halved. Press into an 8-in. pan or stick with a 9x13-in. pan for thinner squares.

Use wet hands or a wet spatula to press mixture into pan to prevent sticking. Use the bottom of a measuring cup to evenly press the squares.
